Because we see which distros you're using, and we judge you for it.

Gentoo, in 2024? Really? You should be using Arch if that's your thing. It's not the 90s any more.

I'm pretty sure that Proton quoting her in the first place is fake. I know she's milking her 15 minutes of fame for all she can, but this seems outside her experience.

True, but this is generally not useful information to anyone. They can see you're visiting bank.com, but they still can't see your bank details.

It might be useful if they're trying to target you for phishing, but a targeted attack is extremely unlikely.

Also, any wireless equipment from the past 15 years or so supports client isolation.

$1400/mo, the rough figure from the article, is 30% of $56k/yr. If you made $1m, 30% of that would give you $25,000/mo. How do you figure?

You really listen to that much music that often? I assume that's compressed as well, because I don't think there's a point to high-bitrate media when you're going to play it through phone speakers or Bluetooth.

Personally I just use plain old FM radio in my car, a couple dozen songs on my workout playlist for the gym, and YouTube streams for work.

Peaceful relative to what? Historically, war and conflict has been the norm.

International condemnation, and Iran hitting back, though with conventional weapons. Iran's responses have been largely symbolic so far, so I can't imagine them using nukes first.

Well it might be where you live but there ain't gonna be any home or community there much longer

You presume that that information reaches them and that they're willing to consider it.

Company runs a hosted Wordpress service that competes with wordpress.com. Wordpress (i.e. CEO Matt Mullenweg) wants a cut and is trying to strong-arm them. People are upset with this.

As opposed to actually practicing being kind to your neighbor. Stuff like that.

Assuming that stack trace is from the crash, it looks like it's a problem processing the results of the scan. What does the wifi list look like from your scans? Anything with weird characters or corrupt info?

I got banned earlier today with the message "rule 1", no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says "We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple."

So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @aniki@lemmings.world was banned today as well, also just for "rule 1", probably either for the comment saying "a stupid bot writing useless bullshit" or "This is what you call "Not listening to criticism."", neither of which are an attack on any person.

(Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca was banned with the message "fuck off", which I'm pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn't appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)

One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee was banned, again just "rule 1", last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.

So what's the deal here? I couldn't find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
